Then we would have to kill you!

Also just for reference for people reading this post.

Closest to the Turbo is the DOC (Cat) and the second piece is the DPF, the third piece is the muffler.

This is only true on the cab chassis.

on the pickup you have DOC, NAC (nox absorber catalyst), dpf, then muffler.

To answer the other question:

No matter how hard you drive it, the dpf will actively regen based upon a timer in the ECM. The timer is base upon fuel burn. You will actually get more regens the harder you drive it (more fuel burn = faster timer).

The mis information in the original article is that the C/C and pickup engines will not regen at idle. If you are driving and come to a stop sigh or light, it will continue to regen until you put it in park, accelerate again, or sit there too long.

In the other thread you posted:

your 6.7L will not regen at idle.

(and apparently the 6.4 will not anymore after you get the reflash).

Which is it, regen or no regen at idle?

nac?? what you mean by nac? the 2500 (pick-up) have the "cat" after the "dpf" and finaly the "muffler"

the dpf itself is a nox absorber.......

We were talking about the ACERT Caterpillar C-15 engine , it has a spark plug and flame can for the aftertreatment. you cant even see the engine with all the plumbing they have on it , the SRT for changing the waterpump is like 8 hours to do a changeover.

Cummins aftertreatment does not use a FLAME or COMBUSTION anywhere for the aftertreatment
